Abstract :
This paper presents a new strategy for optimally placing Static Var Compensator (SVC) in power systems with a view to minimize the transmission loss. The proposed strategy uses Self Adaptive Firefly Algorithm (SAFA) and identifies the optimal locations for SVC placement and their parameter. The SVC placement strategy is applied on two IEEE test systems and their results are presented to demonstrate its effectiveness.
